While speaking about the Romero transfer, Eliana Guercio accused Manchester United of not respecting the goalkeeper. After Dean Henderson’s return to the club meant that Sergio Romero was now the third-choice keeper behind the youngster and first choice David de Gea, the 33-year-old was widely expected to leave the club. Multiple reports covering the Romero transfer had also claimed that the goalkeeper was close to a move to Everton, with the Red Devils pulling the plug on the deal at the last minute.
The 42-year-old wrote on social media that while Sergio Romero helped the club reach four finals/semi-finals, he was left on the bench later on. Talking about the Romero transfer that fell through, Eliana Guercio advised the club to respect the goalkeeper’s wishes and let him go.
